The oak timber comes from an Italian producer and the family company Gizia that guarantee a sublime finish in massive oak since 1962.
Circular by design
The materials used by Topp and Legg, are chosen to last as long as possible. To achieve this, the company uses innovative technologies and new production applications. On top of a multiplex, a coat of linoleum is applied ofrr the brand FENIX© NTM. This ensures that the table is scratch-free and is warmer than traditional laminate. Is there still a scratch on your table? Then you can work with an iron and a piece of cloth to wipe out the scratches and signs of use. This way your table will look like brand new year after year.
In 2021 Henri Decruy looks at how he has to evolve from a Topp and Legg modular collection to a circular business model that allows to benefit commercial partners as well as human beings or our planet. We’ll keep you posted!
Materials

They have a chemical basis, but also make the tables last longer .The glue of these products are not completely ecological according to COSH!
In 2021 new material for the table tops will arrive, such as ceramic. This material is UV resistant and is usable for inside and outside! Topp and Legg looks for a powder lacquer in fine structures which keeps the colour intact for 25 year.
However, Topp and Legg allows you to have a table that will last forever. Perfect to spend cosy evenings together with family and friends.
Short supply chain
In addition, the production partners of Topp and Legg are all located in proximity to each other. For the sheet material (plywood and FENIX top layer), Topp and Legg cooperates with Vanca, a partner from Gullegem in West Flanders. The metal legs come from Lesage in Moorsele, also in West Flanders. This enables them to limit transport and emit less greenhouse gasses into the air.
